Sea-Ice Mass Balance Influenced by Ice Shelves
Floating ice shelves at the boundary between the Antarctic ice sheet and the Southern Ocean play a crucial role in Antarctica’s mass balance through iceberg calving and basal melting. The latter has strong implications for coastal Antarctic sea-ice properties through the formation of a sub-ice plate...
